The worst thing a man with a tender
skin can do is to go from shop to shop and
get shaved by as many different BARRIERS
a. there are days in the week. A barber
who is up to his work gets as well ac-
quainted with the faces of the men he
shaves as the engineer gets to know the
grades and curves of the road he runs
over. 1t takes one or two shaves to find
o the peculiarities of n customers face,
and the man who drops into any shop he
may be passing suffers unlimited torture
in consequence. People who shave them
selves have generally been constrained
to do so by the unintentional cruelty of
strange slaves of the tonsorial art. For
tunately for the profession, they mostly
return to their old habits, for although at
least one man in five can shave himself,
not one man in twenty can strop n
and keep it moderately sharp.-Barbcr

A Famous Floating Island.

The famous floating island of the Der
wentwater, England, has come to the
surface again after a long disappearance.
This is a mass of decaying vegetation
forming a layer of peat, on top of which
is a thin covering of clay bound together
by the roots of vegetation. 1t rests on
the clay bottom of the lake, but some
times some force, supposed to be in the
gases generated by the ~decaying matter,
causes it to rise to the surface. It's ex-
tent sometimes reaches half an acre, and
it rises and falls with the water, until
finally it sinks out of sight again, to be
gone probably for several years.-New
York sun.
